Hey, this is Shaley. This is the audio from the May 20th book signing over at BookSoup on

Sunset in Los Angeles, California. Brian Hedigan and Doug sit down and talk about the book

and then they take some questions from the audience. There was no audience, Mike, so it was

impossible to hear him on the playback of the recording. But Doug does a pretty good job

repeating the questions before he answers them and the ones he doesn't. He could pretty

much tell what the question is. So here we go. Hello. Alright, I'm Christina with BookSoup.

And we're delighted to be hosting. And again, discussing Digging up Mother a Love Story.

So before we get started, if everyone can silence their cell phones, that would be great.

The books are the front register to purchase. That's right behind you here. And the sign

will take place at the back desk. So that's straight through this quarter and then to the

left. We have events like this pretty much every night of the week. So we encourage everyone

to sign up for our email list so you get a sense of what's going on in the store. And

about tonight's event. So Brian Hedigan as a British novelist, producer and director.

Hedigan's first novel, Patrick Robinson, a television venture was published by Jonathan

Cape in 2000. A comedy producer at the Edinburgh Festival French. Hedigan established a production

and management relationship with Doug. And Doug Sandhope is a veteran of over 25 years

of stand-up comedy and towards extensively in North America and overseas. He's won numerous

accolades, including being voted the best show of the entire Edinburgh Festival by the

British press on his 2002 UK debut and has recorded over a dozen comedy specials. Please

welcome them both. Thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you. I'll pay for this book that

I'm going to use as a coaster. Yeah. And silence your cell phones because it's not nearly

quiet enough in here. Thanks very much, Kristina. Thank you. And it's great to be here and
